Delighted to be able to help a few runners in the lead up to last months Dublin marathon. 
Overcoming the full distance requires alot of training which can be demanding on the body . 
 
This client above was suffering with shin splints 4-5 weeks out from the race.  
Thankfully through our assessment we found an imbalance in the muscles of the lower leg.  
We addressed this with Some manual therapy along with a specific rehab programme . 
 
Thankfully everything addressed itself in time and allowed this client run a brillant time in his first ever marathon. 
💪💪💪

Off season from any sport can be a great time to improve physically for the coming year 🏋️‍♂️⁣
⁣
But for some people this downtime from the pitch is used to finally sort out an existing injury from the year previous. ⁣
⁣
Knees and achilles tendons are notorious for healing partially and causing secondary injuries as the patient attempts to return to activity too soon.⁣
⁣
⁣
➡️ Recent client with Knee pain during the year⁣
⁣
🔺We identified areas of the body that needed to work more effectively to reduce the load the knee had been taking. ⁣
⁣
🔺Over the course of a number of weeks we have seen steady progress due to the clients hardwork and commitment to the treatment plan ⁣
⁣
🔺As you can see from the message he has progressed the rehab exercises and challenging the body even further with each session⁣
⁣
🔺If further milestones are reached over the next month I would hope that they should have a painfree knee for 2023 💪⁣
⁣
⁣
So if you have had niggling injuries throughout last season no better time than now to resolve this. ⁣
⁣
Any questions don't hesitate to contact. ⁣

Last number of weeks seeing alot of injuries to muscles of the lower body mainly Hamstring and calf🦵🦵⁣
⁣
As these players get closer to returning to the field of play the above area I use at the clinic becomes very important⁣
⁣
On the astro area we focus on the players landing mechanics and introducing lots of plyometric based exercises⁣
⁣
This area of the rehabilitation plan is of great importance beforing allowing them back into the pitch⁣
⁣
If any questions on this don't hesitate to contact

MY ROLE AS A PHYSICAL THERAPIST⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I would like to quickly explain how my role as a physical therapist actually works.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I work with people of all ages.⁣⁣
Patients I see can come to the clinic with a recent or longterm injury.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
When a patient enters the clinic I complete a full examination to try identify the reason for the injury. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Within this I evaluate components such as a person's mobility, strength and what previous injuries or conditions they may have experienced. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My aim is to then develop a treatment plan to improve my clients ability to move, reduce or manage pain. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I use techniques such as massage, dry needling, rehabilitation exercises and functional movement techniques to help with this. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We will also set specific goals with the patient to help guide them through the process. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Returning people to pain free activities in their daily life or back playing their sport of choice is my aim objective with each client. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I hope you found this helpful and if any further questions drop a call or a message and I would be delighted to help. ⁣⁣

The very best of luck to Gneeveguilla in the All Ireland Junior final tomorrow.⁣
⁣
A fantastic achievement reaching the final and hopefully can go one step further.⁣
⁣
It's been a pleasure to have been involved in treating the players so a big thank you to all.⁣
⁣
🟢🟡🟢🟡

🏐🏐 Best of luck to Gneeveguilla today in the Munster Junior club final in Mallow.

➡️The above statement is something I agree with totally.⁣
⁣
➡️From when I opened the clinic having a squat rack and weights for my clients was important to me.⁣
⁣
➡️For the rehabilitation of certain injuries we want to load the body in a specific manner. ⁣
⁣
➡️This can apply to both sports athletes and to the general public with back and knee pain for example. ⁣
⁣
➡️To build resilience and confidence to return to normal activities the use of barbell and kettlebell based rehab exercises can be of huge benefit.⁣
⁣

🎅🎅🎄🎄I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.⁣
⁣
Thanks for all your continued support in 2021 both in the clinic and pitch side duties.⁣
⁣
Look forward to seeing you again.⁣
Back to work on Wed 5th January.⁣
Call or DM for appointments. ⁣
⁣
Best Wishes for 2022⁣

Super work from recent client 🔥🔥

🏐GAA footballer

➡️Knee pain with a couple of months

This case involved we looking at the lower leg as a whole.

Meaning as you can see in picture 2 the Glutes, Quads, Hamstrings and calfs all working effectively together.

But for this client from our testing showed an overactive quad area and underactive calf and hamstring. This resulting in knee pain for the patient.

Treatment plan objectives

1. Looking to get more stability around ankle and knee joint.

2. Getting the calf and hamstring to work together more effectively.
Isometric based exercises proved very important here.

3. (pic 2) when imbalances in lower leg were reducing to challenge the client for the demanding nature of GAA

4. Return to play running programme. We want our clients to build up this gradually to avoid re-injury and build confidence in the body again.

This clients commitment and work rate to the treatment plan we put in place was top class. And got the rewards they deserved in the end.

Thanks to everyone who entered the competition, greatly appreciated 👏👏
